Only negative about tonight..... 23:53 - Oct 8 with 12680 views | pelles321 | That Toto chant. Are people aware there are similarities between it and the Villa chant which has been widely criticised over the weekend? It has the same final line, which is part of what is being criticised for racial stereotypes. There were lots of positives about tonight’s game though. Huws was excellent, Dobra looked lively again and glad Keane has got his first of the season. | | | | |

Some people aren’t always online to read every thread. If you’ve commented previously then no need to read about it again. Plus some people may think that considering what constitutes racism in football is not zzzz and may be worth mentioning more than once. Interesting that some people likely raised feeling uncomfortable about it a few weeks ago yet it is still sung. | | | |

Agree. It's irritating. I'm guessing it's the new 'innit'. But it's baby talk either way. | |

Unfortunately Cam as I was told in an office training course a few years ago these days just because the person that the comments are aimed at is happy/comfortable/not offended by it that doesn’t mean it’s ok. The examples given to us were things like an older person saying they were having a senior moment or a blonde taking the p155 out of themselves. PC gone mad! | |

A racial trope is a racial trope. Toto may not be offended by it (although I'm not sure he'd want to rock the boat by saying that he is) but clearly the reaction to more or less identical songs shows that the use of a racial trope is offensive to people. It's not like people are going up to Toto in private to congratulate him on his massive cock and then having a chortle with him about it, it's being sung in public. | |

Why the downvote? I was agreeing that you can’t say that sort of stuff particularly these days whether the person concerned is happy or not, what is different to your use of language? | |

White people from Suffolk who think they are poor black gang members from South Central LA is what happened to words. I blame Tim Westwood. | |

You ended your post with "PC gone mad!". I may have misinterpreted that but it made it look like you think it's not a good thing that people don't lazily stereotype anymore. | |

The complete opposite in reality when it is about the Suffolk dialect and effectively mocking that | |

Sorry the PC gone mad was more aimed at the harmless stuff like an older person saying they were having a senior moment or the blonde saying she was having a blonde moment, not at the stronger stuff with racist connotations | |

Also, side note, our Captain has a sticker on his phone case with part of the song words on it.... Another side note, Villa fans sung about a player having a master, slightly different I’d say | |
